Growing demand for release liner

According the last AWA Alexander Watson Associates’ newly-published AWA Global Release Market Liner Annual Review 2020, growing demand for release liner across an increasingly broad application base.

While the pressure-sensitive label stock segment continues to be the largest, with a 48% share of the market worldwide – and forecast growth at 3.9% p.a. — other segments, benefiting from release liner as a carrier for adhesive coatings or other substances, continue to grow, driving the overall growth of the global release liner market to 3.5% in 2019. Faster-growing markets are like medical, electronics, and composites, and other application segments such as graphic films, tapes, food and bakery, and envelopes.
